Hi Bob.
I had more or less the same problem, only my PC would go dead after running a certain app. What i did eventually was ... reinstall the whole system from scratch. Windows 98 and all the rest including VFP 6.0. Now the unlucky app runs smoothly and VFP runs relatively smoothly.
Hope you will not have to do this, Bob.
